Best impulse purchase from Moe's ever. I imagine it would be pretty hard to find this in print. Where is Pamela Lu now? What is she doing? I kind of want to be her. Okay, for a second when I read her biography (the real reason I purchased the book--literary-minded Asian-American female who attended Berkeley--in addition to the kickass first few pages), I thought I *was* her. Or she was me. The feeling actually intensified as I continued reading the novellette (that connotes something different from novella, right?), which is full of incredibly clever and acute observations, and very articulate. I'm not really sure where it ended up, or why it ended where it did (it's pretty slim), but it's all about the voice and style.
